The inventor of the application finds that the existing display panel has the defects of yellowing around and the like, and is caused to the box process to a certain extent. Currently, the existing box aligning process includes: (1) Liquid crystal is dripped on the array substrate, and frame sealing glue is coated on the color film substrate. The frame sealing glue comprises a Main glue body (Main Sealant) and a virtual Sealant (Dummy Sealant), wherein the virtual Sealant is arranged on the periphery of the Main glue body. (2) In a Vacuum Aligner System (VAS for short), an upper base station for adsorbing a color film substrate and a lower base station for adsorbing an array substrate are aligned and relatively close to each other, the color film substrate and the array substrate are attached to form a box body, and an ultraviolet light source is adopted to irradiate a virtual colloid to complete the pre-curing of the virtual colloid. (3) And taking the box body out of the vacuum box aligning machine, overturning the box body by a mechanical arm in transmission, and then completing the curing of the main colloid through processes of ultraviolet curing, thermocuring and the like. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a pre-cured dummy pattern in a conventional process. The pre-cured virtual colloid in the vacuum box aligning machine can ensure that the color film substrate and the array substrate are firmly attached, and the color film substrate and the array substrate are not easy to slide relatively in the subsequent transmission and overturning of the mechanical arm of the box body. As shown in fig. 1, the ultraviolet light source of the pre-cured virtual placement colloid is formed by disposing a plurality of ultraviolet light emitting diode (UV LED) point light sources 210 on a light source carrier 200 at equal intervals, the light source carrier 200 may be rectangular, and a plurality of (for example, 15) point light sources 210 are disposed on each side edge of the light source carrier 200. For a large-sized display panel, since the diameter of the point light sources 210 is about 3mm to 5mm and the distance between adjacent point light sources 210 is large, each point light source 210 can only irradiate a part of the virtual colloid. The irradiated virtual colloid has increased hardness after curing reaction and is not easy to be compressed, while the unirradiated virtual colloid lacks curing reaction, has smaller colloid hardness and is easy to be compressed. After the box body 100 is taken out of the vacuum box aligning machine, the surfaces of the color film substrate and the array substrate are extruded due to the atmospheric pressure, so that the virtual colloid is deformed. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the deformation of a virtual placement gel. Because the hardness of the virtual colloid at each position is different, the deformation amount of the virtual colloid with different hardness is different, and the colloid height of the virtual colloid at the periphery of the box body is different. As shown in fig. 2, the cured dummy colloids 21 have a large hardness, are not easily compressed, and have a small deformation amount due to the curing reaction, so that the height of the cured dummy colloids 21 is large. The uncured virtual colloid 22 has a small hardness, is easy to compress, and has a large deformation amount due to lack of curing reaction, so that the adhesive height of the uncured virtual colloid 22 is small. The glue height difference of the virtual colloid is preserved in the subsequent ultraviolet curing and thermal curing processes. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of deformation of the primary colloid and the dummy colloid. As shown in fig. 3, since part of the dummy colloids 20 is already cured, and the main colloids 10 are not cured, the physical properties, hardness, and deformation of the main colloids 10 and the dummy colloids 20 are different, and thus the glue height of the main colloids 10 is different from the glue height of the dummy colloids 20 under the action of atmospheric pressure. The difference in the glue height between the main colloid 10 and the dummy colloid 20 is maintained during the subsequent uv curing and thermal curing processes. Because the glue heights of the virtual colloid at each position are different, the glue heights of the main colloid and the virtual colloid are different, so that the liquid crystal box thicknesses (CG for short) in all the areas around the box body are different, the light path difference of backlight in the areas is different, the macroscopic difference shows the color difference, namely the phenomenon of yellowing, and the phenomenon of yellowing of a large-size display panel is particularly serious. After the virtual colloid is pre-cured, although the glue height inconsistency of the virtual colloid can be reduced to a certain extent by standing for 20 to 30 minutes and the like, and the glue height inconsistency of the main colloid and the virtual colloid can be relieved to a certain extent, the production efficiency and the productivity are seriously influenced and the yellowing phenomenon cannot be completely eliminated because the required production Tact Time (TT) is too long.
In order to overcome the defects of yellowing of the periphery and the like of the conventional display panel, the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a display panel. Fig. 4 is a flowchart of a method of manufacturing a display panel according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

(6) And feeding the box body into a thermosetting device for thermosetting. After the ultraviolet curing, the box body enters a thermosetting device to simultaneously thermally cure the main colloid 10 and the dummy colloid 20. Because the physical properties of the virtual colloid 20 at each position are the same, and the physical properties of the main colloid 10 and the virtual colloid 20 are the same, after the thermal curing is finished, the shrinkage degree of each position of the virtual colloid 20 is basically the same, the glue height of each position of the virtual colloid 20 is basically the same, the shrinkage degree of the main colloid 10 and the shrinkage degree of the virtual colloid 20 are basically the same, the glue height of the main colloid 10 is basically the same as the glue height of the virtual colloid 20, and the box thickness at the periphery of the box body cannot be different.

Compared with the existing preparation method for pre-curing, the pre-curing treatment of the virtual colloid is not performed when the box is subjected to the pre-curing treatment, so that the problem that the deformation of the frame sealing glue is different under the action of atmospheric pressure is fundamentally eliminated, when the box body is subjected to the action of atmospheric pressure subsequently, the deformation amount of each position of the virtual colloid is basically the same, and the deformation amount of the main colloid and the deformation amount of the virtual colloid are basically the same, so that the glue height of each position of the virtual colloid is basically the same, and the glue height of the main colloid and the glue height of the virtual colloid are basically the same. Compared with the existing preparation method for turning over the box body, the array substrate is located above the color film substrate and the color film substrate is located below the array substrate when the box is turned over in the exemplary embodiment of the disclosure, so that 180-degree turning over is not needed after the box is turned over, and the problem that the array substrate and the color film substrate slide relatively during turning over due to insufficient adhesive capacity of the frame sealing glue is effectively solved. Because the overturning process is not adopted, the offset cannot occur between the oppositely arranged array substrate and the color film substrate, and the positions of the main colloid and the virtual colloid between the array substrate and the color film substrate cannot be changed, so that the alignment precision of the array substrate and the color film substrate is ensured, the accuracy of pixel alignment in the display panel is ensured, and the poor light leakage in the display panel is ensured. Because the main colloid and the virtual colloid are subjected to ultraviolet curing treatment in the ultraviolet curing equipment at the same time, the glue height of each position of the virtual colloid is basically the same, and the glue height of the main colloid is basically the same as that of the virtual colloid, so that the uniform height of the frame sealing glue at the periphery of the box body is ensured, no deformation difference is ensured, the difference of the box thickness at the periphery of the box body is ensured to be smaller, the thicknesses of liquid crystal boxes at each area of the periphery of the display panel are ensured to be basically the same, the optical path difference of backlight in the areas is basically the same, and the defects of yellowing and the like at the periphery of a large-size display panel are effectively avoided.
